Chop’t
“Not too much in terms of seating, but probably because most customers would take it out to their offices or across the street to Bryant Park.”
“I got the kebab cobb salad with red wine vinaigrette PLUS added avocado & broccoli..”
“I've been a loyal customer for a few months now and try to go everyday to this location because not only the food is fresh and great but the customer service is amazing.”

Amazing place for salad and salad sandwich!!! I had my very 1st "hot" Braised Greek salad sandwich here. I love the olives, feta cheese and chicken in my sandwich!! Very fresh & creative! I came during lunch break and waited nearly 15 mins to get the food! It's worthy for the wait tho!
I always love a good Chop't. Steakhouse salad plus olives is my fave. It's always so busy at this location but the choppers work like robots and make all the salads quickly and correctly. I'm a fan.
I've been to several of their locations, there's two within walking distance from where I work. Great selection of salad creations and dressings, but not every spot is consistent with it. Why is it that healthy food is more expensive than junk food? Put bacon in your salad and don't be ashamed.
Ehhhh the salad is decent but really overpriced. I got a veggie salad- no protein and came up to about $14. City cafe on 43rd has a much better lunch time deal with unlimited toppings. However, the staff is very nice and attentive! Also, all ingredients were super fresh and dee-lish!
Super fast service, good for a quick lunch break getting out of the office. Great location, across the street from Bryan's Park.
I ordered the Palm Beach salad. All the ingredients are very fresh.
It was a pleasant experience getting my salad from Chop't. My salad was good. But I have to say it's kinda pricy. A regular salad is $10+. But given it's in Times Square. I guess it's ok.
Overall, I'd recommend this place.
I've honestly tried to avoid this location mostly because I've passed by here in the summers and the line is out the door. But then again, actually visit Chop't for yourself and you'll realize these salads are so good it's totally worth waiting out the door (on a hot summer day, maybe debatable but still).
I came in on a rainy Wednesday and there was close to zero line. There is a greeter who directs you to the multiple salad stations they have, much like any other Chop't. I say I prefer this location more even though is less seating because it is very clear where the line is.
I like Chop't because I'm a bad salad maker, meaning I like a lot of things – but these things don't necessary taste good together in salads (like ice cream and ketchup, not that I'd ever put those two in salads, I know that much). Thank goodness Chop't has a whole list of salads you can request them to make and obviously they can accommodate it according to your needs (vg, gf, v) as they are only recommendations. I tried their New England Harvest with beets and blue cheese and boy, it was delicious! Some of the salads don't have a lot of toppings in them, so you can feel free to add more, but sometimes, salads shouldn't.
And also don't forget – bread is free if you ask!
I love Chop't so much – the closing of their 41st and Broadway branch has made my work food consumption a sadder, more expensive, less healthy affair. I started venturing over to this branch, but after several visits, I think I'm just going to have to give up unless/until they reopen over on Broadway, as was originally promised. In 5 trips here, they've been out of a particular ingredient or my desired dressing 4 times. That alone wouldn't be a major issue, but they haven't told me about that fact until my salad was pretty much put together, tossed and chopped – sorry, Chop't – on 3 of those occasions, leaving me the unhappy choice to either (a) be an ass, tell them to waste food and start over or (b) try to figure out a replacement ingredient/dressing that they can throw in my salad. And what can truly replace kalamata olives or mexican goddess dressing, anyway?
Look, I understand, you run out of stuff – on the whole I think it's a good sign – people come here, hopefully they really do use fresh ingredients… but you really need to let people know that at the ordering stage rather than the check-out stage. I love Chop't's business model and stated goals (Chipotle-like but minus the e. coli thus far) and they are certainly a company receptive to customer feedback (they sent me a $5 credit after I emailed to complain about the problem the last time it occurred), but I'm not even that anxious to go back and use it. I mean, if you can't get the exact salad you want, eventually you have to go elsewhere – at least until they open a closer, hopefully better branch – don't you?
Chop't is what you make of it. You have to arrive early, or late to avoid lengthy lines that are often out the door. You have to know what you want, because once you get to the front of the line, there is absolutely no time for asking questions or being indecisive without drawing the glare from the many hungry people behind you. I really enjoy their long list of optional add-ins, the multiple types of greens and that everything is fully customizable. That being said, all those extras add up and before you know it, you can easily wind up paying $16 for a salad, just because you wanted to add a little goat cheese and egg whites.
Your experience can vary greatly depending on who makes your salad. Some people are more heavy handed than others. Also, I find myself paying different amounts for the same salad. Some people will mark items as premium toppings on your tickets, while others might not. It can be very frustrating. The most economic way to enjoy Chop't is to order off their menu; whenever I do, I always wind up paying less than when I make my own concoction.
All that being said, I enjoy the salad here far more than area delis. I like the convenience of using the app, and the fact that I can earn credit towards a free salad. But, the inconsistent pricing, long lines and hefty price tag definitely keep me from frequenting Chop't as much as I'd like.
